It's designed to be funny because it subverts what we expect about people in functioning society, but now the novel idea has become so mainstream that it's evolved to something mean-spirited, and now the young people are emulating this behavior. Access to the Internet at yet younger ages means kids watching TikToks full of bad language, sexual degeneracy and overpoliticized narcissism, which becomes "reality" to these children. Imagine how they will turn out? We're already seeing how some kids who grew up watching all the Elsagate KZread videos in 2015-2016 have developed strange paraphilias.

@iknow2145 You are much older than myself and I never watch old news segments but I've seen old movies and TV shows, and it's a different world. The modern world has embraced ugliness and imperfection, coinciding with the cultural downfall of faith as a societal virtue, meaning less of a drive towards beauty and the divine. Now, everyone is perfect as they are. Everyone is the god of their own personal reality, equally as correct and righteous and wonderful. I'm old enough to have seen the Lord of the Rings movies in theaters as a small child, so I remember what culture was like not longer ago cuz it was fairly recent. The media has gone over the cliff at an exponential rate in the last 10 years. So much of it is now hideous and crude and spiteful, with few exceptions. Don't anyone kid themselves; it's all a deliberate project.

Another vital element of being well mannered is courteously making yourself understood, explaining what you meant when others don't fully understand you on the first try. It is very rude and aggressive to get mad at them and behave badly because you weren't clear. That's putting the responsibility on others for your lack of articulate communication. We aren't mindreaders; people need to be courteous, respectful and clear. If they aren't, but instead behave badly, they aren't worth being around.

It's like an in-joke that's gone wrong. In-joke humor has exploded with the prevalence of internet memes, too. It all feeds into their narcissism.

I think I read in Emily Post's book way back, manners are about preventing problems or harm, and showing consideration instead of selfish non-concern. In all practicality then, it is better for the man to walk down the stairs in front of the lady, in case either slip, the man can catch/shield/prevent her from falling, or if the man slips, he's not going to bowl her over and crush her. Going up the stairs, ladies first. Going down the stairs man first. In Germany tradition is for the man to enter a room first especially if it is an unfamiliar place. again to be her shield in case of danger inside.

Growing up in CA thru the 60's & 70's I saw how these courtesies and manners were going away! At home I was taught these things, but the hardness of life in CA made me forget them. Since my hubby & I have left CA, we've started traveling around & was reminded very much of the old ways / manners when we arrived in Texas and a 10 year old boy opened the door for both of us and said ma'am and sir! We've both have regained our manners & such, especially since we've settled down in Kentucky! The manners really come out around here and the thoughtfulness makes life more enjoyable!!

Carlinda I am not only seeing these manners, I still live them, as you do. And, remind people of their lack of manners, as diplomatically as I can. Why isn't this tutorial part of our educational curriculum? Manners are ageless, unless you have the millennial generation that feel entitled to " reinvent the wheel." However, Generation X, are their parents. Where did they give up? Once we can replace , "Have a good one," with, "Your Welcome," "Good Morning," Good Afternoon," "Good Evening," or less "formal," Have a good day, " Have a nice night," When we eliminate ,"No problem" and "Whatever,"( which really is modern day) "F you," then we will return to civility, which really means kindness and respect.

Over the years I've had so many say your not of this time well I am but not its hard to explain. My husband is 67 im 42 and if you met us and had dinner with us it would be like stepping back in time. I do all the chores , dinner set at a certain time .

The modern world has embraced ugliness and imperfection, coinciding with the cultural downfall of faith as a societal virtue, meaning less of a drive towards beauty and the divine. Now, everyone is perfect as they are. Everyone is the god of their own personal reality, equally as correct and righteous and wonderful. I'm old enough to have seen the Lord of the Rings movies in theaters as a small child, so I remember what culture was like not longer ago cuz it was fairly recent. The media has gone over the cliff at an exponential rate in the last 10 years. So much of it is now hideous and crude and spiteful, with few exceptions.

Another vital element of being well mannered is courteously making yourself understood, explaining what you meant when others don't fully understand you on the first try. It is very rude and aggressive to get mad at them and behave badly because you weren't clear. That's putting the responsibility on others for your lack of articulate communication. We aren't mindreaders; people need to be courteous, respectful and clear. If they aren't, but instead behave badly, they aren't worth being around.

It's like an in-joke that's gone wrong. In-joke humor has exploded with the prevalence of internet memes, too. It all feeds into their narcissism.

I think I read in Emily Post's book way back, manners are about preventing problems or harm, and showing consideration instead of selfish non-concern. In all practicality then, it is better for the man to walk down the stairs in front of the lady, in case either slip, the man can catch/shield/prevent her from falling, or if the man slips, he's not going to bowl her over and crush her. Going up the stairs, ladies first. Going down the stairs man first. In Germany tradition is for the man to enter a room first especially if it is an unfamiliar place. again to be her shield in case of danger inside.
Growing up in CA thru the 60's & 70's I saw how these courtesies and manners were going away! At home I was taught these things, but the hardness of life in CA made me forget them. Since my hubby & I have left CA, we've started traveling around & was reminded very much of the old ways / manners when we arrived in Texas and a 10 year old boy opened the door for both of us and said ma'am and sir! We've both have regained our manners & such, especially since we've settled down in Kentucky! The manners really come out around here and the thoughtfulness makes life more enjoyable!!

I think I read in Emily Post's book way back, manners are about preventing problems or harm, and showing consideration instead of selfishness. In all practicality then, it is better for the man to walk down the stairs in front of the lady, in case either slip, the man can catch/shield/prevent her from falling, or if the man slips, he's not going to bowl her over and crush her. Going up the stairs, ladies first. Going down the stairs man first. In Germany tradition is for the man to enter a room first especially if it is an unfamiliar place or full of complete strangers, again to be her shield in case of danger inside.
It reminds of how I need to have better manners but this is good and the will of God for our lives.

I think we just need a little more awareness of our impact on others. We’re more self involved these days. It’s not difficult, a little effort goes a long way. We should watch this to be reminded of that.
Good manners are good at anytime.

Maybe you should start now and stop making condescending comments about people online. Make an example for us all to follow!
Man, I wish more people were respectful like this.
"Should Jack get off first?" "Yes, and he can give the ladies a hand." Lmao
The only problem I personally faced is that, some/most people take your manners as granted/weaknesses and like to create intimidation in so many ways. Perhaps why keeping your circle limited is a must these days.

You don’t need to be weak or lame, in order to have manners and class. Notice how the boy is confidently talking to the two girls, who like him back- but he’s doing it and a respectful end courteous way.
I see comments on these videos like “I can’t stop watching this I don’t know why lol!” And I have an answer, I know why. It’s because we wish people acted like this today!

They know what's best for you and what you are feeling and thinking...and what you're thinking is to submit to them. Happiness awaits. 🙄

Gene/ Jean looks like my aunt, Norma. Aunt Norma is the most '50s woman' I've ever met. She doesn't know what vintage is or what the fashion of the fifties is (she's from a really rural part of Mexico) but she makes all her clothes and they all look like fifties outfits. She's soft voiced, gentle, and has great manners. It's perplexing.

Courtesy and respect are timeless. One thing I was taught that was missed here, is that you should lead when descending steps, and your respected other should lead when ascending - the reason being if the respected other stumbles or falls, you can offer some assistance and break the fall. I still do this, especially for my frail mum.
This video still serves a lot to this day! Thank you for sharing! ❤️

I was in elementary school during the late fifties and early sixties and the teacher would show these kinds of films.
I grew up knowing/learning many of these basic lessons (sometimes it rubbed off on the person I was dating). The one I married didn’t take much “polishing” but is now *always* the best escort for young and old alike. It is so refreshing to see a person of any age display the basic courtesies.

Carlinda I am not only seeing these manners, I still live them, as you do. And, remind people of their lack of manners, as diplomatically as I can. Why isn't this tutorial part of our educational curriculum? Manners are ageless, unless you have the millennial generation that feel entitled to " reinvent the wheel." However, Generation X, are their parents. Where did they give up? Once we can replace , "Have a good one," with, "Your Welcome," "Good Morning," Good Afternoon," "Good Evening," or less "formal," Have a good day, " Have a nice night," When we eliminate ,"No problem" and "Whatever,"( which really is modern day) "F you," then we will return to civility, which really means kindness and respect.

@Linda: It's the models we have today. Look at the rock stars - how terribly they behave! Or our politicians, how they betray the people unpunishedly. Even religious people have perpetrated crimes against little children. One has to decide for himself whether he follows these patterns, no matter what the surrounding people do.
In the 80s As the world changed around us our home remained in the 50s and 60s manurisms, values everything till all of us married, present day I still can't conform to today's world only fashion. Just thought it was normal in the 80s . Mom made our clothes tended to the home and children. Taught us how to take care of our husband and cook , sew . She was the same way . Over the years I've had so many say your not of this time well I am but not its hard to explain. My husband is 67 im 42 and if you met us and had dinner with us it would be like stepping back in time. I do all the chores , dinner set at a certain time . I never open the door in my pajamas, my husband takes care of the bills and i take care of the home. I greet my husband everyday he comes home too its normal for me .
